FERGUS FALLS, Minn., Sept. 24.-In
response to an order received from the
general land Office to-day, authorizing
him to open to settlement under the
general land laws all lands in your dis
trict within the indemnity limits of the
grant to the Northern Pacific Railway
company heretofore withdrawn for the
benefit of said company, Register Cow
ing, of the Fergus Falls land office. an
nounceS that no applications, no entries
or filings will be allowed on any of this
land until Dec. 1. The object of this is
to give the land office time to get
through its busy month of November
before the rush of would-be settlers be-
gins; also, to give those who have al
ready settled on the land time to learn
of the order, and thus take advantage of
it on even terms with others who might
desire to file on the tracts already set
tied on. The time given before entries
will be received will evidently prevent
various specializing schemes to the det-
riment of actual settlers from being car
ried out, for by Dec. even the remote
county districts will have heard of the
opening of the land to settlement. In
the district covered by the Fergus Falls
land Office, from $4,000 to 10000 acres
will be opened to settlement. This en-
tire acreage is in Otter Tail and Doug
lass counties. The larger part of it is
in Otter Tail county,

Specials to the Globe.
GRAND FORKS, Sept. 22.-The final
day of the North Dakota exposition was
lovely and many thousands attended,
the Manitoba railway running free cars
every half hour from the city proper to
the fair grounds. The events were the
wedding and five-mile equestrian race.
At 80 p. m. carriage drove up to the
judges stand with May Holmes, Secre-
tary ProntY and the bride, Mrs. Francis
A. Ashton, late of Chicago, and d. G.
Vernon, an al tiSt of Mimic. The groom
was applauded by the vast audience.
They took the judges stand and Mayor
Holmes performed the ceremony in the
most lacOnic form of the law after
which Secretary Pronty and all present
saluted the bride, while Artist Black
burn in the back ground photogra phed
the scene. A large number of useful and
ornamental presents were given the
couple on the stand. The band played
the wedding march as they drove Off
and cOlored quartette sang wedding
hymns. The bride wore cinnamon brown
satin and hat to match, with a crimson
feather. She stood the ordeal like
veteran. The groom wore plain black
suit and orange blossom boutton-
nire. The ladies' five-mile race
for $3.50 was won by Miss Pool in 11:47.
The winner was much better handled
in the changes than on Thursday, but
the first horse was lame and gave Miss
Ecrles about an eighth of a mile lead.
Miss Pool made this up in the third and
fourth rounds and came in 100 yards
ahead. She maintained her lead and
increased it to an eighth of a mile which
she maintained to the end, winning by
thirteen seconds. Prizes amounting to
$1,000 were awarded, many for fine
stock going to Minnesota, Iowa and
Wisconsin. The fair has been great
success, in attendance and financially.

NEW YORK, Sept. 24.-The sailing of
the English man-of-war Pylades from
Trinidad to Laguayra to demand indem-
nifty from the government of Venezuela
for the detention of the SchoOners Jo-
sephine and Henriette, would seem to
point to an active policy on the part of
Great Beitain in her dispute with the
South American republic. Lenior de
Silva. the consul-general of Venezuela
in this city, said:
detained for noncompliance with the Gus
tom regulations, and they were seized Just as
vessel which did not comply with the regu-
lations of this government might have been
taken. In my opinion it is merely at attempt
of the Tory ministry in England to initiate
Mr.. Gladstones Egyptian war. They have
got themselvee into SO much trouble in Ire
land that they hope to cover it by vigorous
policy in Venezuela. But what we look for
is the interference of the United States The
question has been before your state depart
ment for some time now, and it is really
serious one. The territory over which Eng
land has assumed control is larger than
British Guinea, and it is territory which
Lord Granville has acknowledged belonged
to Venezuela. They havetaken the Island of
Barima, which is at the mouth of the Ori-
nocO, and they permit the entrance of goods
from English colonies free of duty They
levy taxes upon the people and act in all
matters as the rulers of the country. The
real gist of this matter is the control of the
Orinoco river. Its control means1 an enor-
nous influence upon the South American re-
public, and an influence such as the United
states should have cause to dislike exceed
ingly. As far as war goes, the English could.
of course. blockade the Venezuelan ports if
the United States would allow them to do.
If they attempted to invade the country, it is
probable that their troops would die off like
sheep, in the fevers of the coast line, the
to that point, I suppose the United States
would interfere.

AYOUB KHAN.
His Escape Is Causing the English
aGood Deal ofWorry.

By Cable to the Globe.
LONDON, Sept. 24.-The Indian office
is greatly disappointed at not having re-
ceived confirmation of the reported
capture of Ayoub Khan. On the con-
trary, report received from Afghanis-
tan this afternoon states that the indie
fatigable Afghan pretender is actively
preparing for a descent on Herat.
Nothing more is known at present, and
it need scarcely be said that further
particulars will be anxiously awaited.
So long, indeed, as AyOub is at liberty,
so long may Great Britain consider the
Afghan question, with its attendant is
sues, reopened. The present rule in
that country has never been received
by the people with favor, and there
have always been disaffected tribes,
ready to rise up on the least encourage
ment. With the GhilZai rebellion still
unsurpassed, this is a particularly in
convenient time for the temperance
of Ayoub on Afghan soil. Herat, tools
an embarrassing spot for, while it af-
fects considerable area of country, the
constituted authority is but weakly rep
resented, and the rebellious spirits have
strong following thereabouts. Once
at the head of native army, AyOub
Khan would give his cousin, the ameer,
who is just now troubled with gout,
serious work, and if successful would
reinvolve England in difficulties such as
Englishmen have seen enough of in the
mast

They Let Her Go.

CHICAGO, Sept. 24.-Mrs. Parsons, the
dusky wife of the condemned anarchist,
was arraigned before Justice Lyon this
morning for refusing to comply with a
police officers warning to desist from
violating the city ordinance against dis
tributing circulars Oh the streets. The
policeman testified that even on the way
to the stat on, she continued the Oh
nOXiOus work. In court Mrs. Parsons
assumed the air of martyr. She
claimed the ordinance was dead letter.
Il hope" she said pleadingly to the
justice, Il hope that you will remember
where my husband is, and do with me
as you would wish your own wife to be
dealt with under similar circum-
stances" The justice said he would
continue the case until Tuesday, allow
ing Mrs. Parsons to depart on her own
recogniZance. A large number of the
Woman'S friends were in court.
